This book is intended to be a record of the Biotechnology-Assisted
Re/Afforestation Project in the Asia-Pacific Region (BIO-REFOR)
since 1992, conducted in coop eration with the International Union
of Forest Research Organizations (lUFRO). The purpose of the
project is to promote exchanges of information of fundamental
research on indigenous species in the Asia-Pacific Region in order
to restore natural forests. The production, cultivation, and
maintenance of forest tree species provide highly sustainable
production systems that conserve soils, the microenvironment, and
biodiversity The key technology for biomass production of forests
is propagation via micropropagation or traditional propagation.
However, there are many recalci trant species among useful forest
trees to be propagated in large numbers. Recent advances in
mycorrhizal technology and in vitro culture have made it possible
to commercially propagate useful trees for re/afforestation. In
this book, comprehensive information is provided on propagation,
mycor rhizal inoculation, and reforestation of economically and
environmentally impor tant forest trees, information that usually
is available only in widely scattered re sources. Here, we include
a wide area of the ecology and physiology of dipterocarps as a
general overview, and then cover propagation techniques,
mycorrhizal symbio sis, man-made forests, and biodiversity in the
Asia-Pacific region.
